The temperature lowers. The sky is
overcast, gusts of rain dash against the
windows
All ha! light the lamps, charge the

More uncomfortable shrinking. Yon
beautiful maiden shudders-her lips are
blue, and, alas her shoulders are bare
See, forward, a pallid beauty leans
upon the breast of decrepitude a GRIM
son flood is on her lips, her eyes are
heavy, her hands clenched.
The conductor steps forward, cries
"Here we are at Congestion change cars
for Hemorrhage," and the pallid lady is
assisted from the train, a farewell glance
"a sob-Toot; toot, foot, rataplan, and
away we go.
Jewels flash; there is sheen of silk,
velvet softness, a suggestive textile ad-

dering anatomy.
Blase roues idly move from place to
place; wanton glances take rowing lib
critics.
Weary women gaze plaintively from
the despair of stated ennui. There are
smiles behind which the cleaning teeth
are set with sad significance
There are roses in the cheeks, of hectic
There are lilies on breast and neck, of
pallor.
There is Frightening of eye, that is
fever.
Speech becomes disguise. The light
est word is venomed with envy, NAM
mon and malice, and each congratulation
is a sarcasm.
Toot-toot-the train slackens, the
darkness increases, the conductor steps
forward and cries "Life's End" There
beneath the CHASTITY bas relief of empty
hour-glass and grinning skull the pas
sengers alight and move separately away.
The journey is ended The destinations

The train with slow acceleration begins
monotOnous rataplan on the rails-pleu-
risy flies in the open windo ws-there is a
shuddering and shrinking of delicate
shoulders, a congestive heaving of dis
tressed bosoms, hacking cough here and
there, and then all is lost in the rumble
and rattle of the gaudy train flying to it's
mournful destination.

The conductor passes along; extract
the coupons. His face is pallid, his
cheeks pinched, and his eyes sunken A
smile in which there is no mirth is on his
lips, and horror! his coat lapel flies aside
and through the adhering texture of
minor garb are the ghastly attsnuities of
a skeleton
The train slackens-comes to a stand
still. The conductor cries in dismal
anti-mOrtem dissOnance, "Paralysis-

SCIENTIFIC SCRAPS.
Interesting Matters Which Are Occupying
Specialists Over the World.

A Birmingham paper says that a novel
experiment was recently tried there with the
telephone. A letter was received by Messrs
| Rogers & Priestly, musical caterers in that
! town, asking them to send an organ to suit
| pianoforte to room at Moseley, where
| concert was to take place that night. The
firm were totally at loss to know the
precise tone of the piano, and conse-
quently despared of being able to comply
with the demand in time. However, much to
their surprise, they found that they could COM
municate with the people at Moseley through
the telephone. Forthwith Messrs. Rogers
asked that one of the notes of the piano should
be struck. When this was done, the sound
could be distinctly heard in Colemore Row. and
by gradually reducing the pitch pipe the tones
of both instruments were made to correspond.
Many of the beautiful Alpine flowers,
especially the edelweiss and the Alpine rose,
are in danger of becoming extinct. The gov
eminent of Valais and the Monte Rosa section
of the Alpine Club have caused gardens to be
laid out and Enclosures to be made for the cul-
tivation and protection of these plants. The
station on the Tete de Mouton, near Vissoye,
in the Einficht valley (Valais), situated at the
height of $500 metres, cultivates not only
plants belonging to the Alps but some from
the Pyrenees, the Himalayas and the Caucasus.
At a recent meeting of the Canadian
Institute, DR.. Rosebrugh, of Toronto, read
paper on and presented some specimens of the
photography of the interior of the living eye.
Two series of photographs were shown. The
first simply presented views of the optic nerve
and retinal blood-vessels. The second series
showed not only the retina of the eye but also
an inverted picture of objects to which the eye
was directed, depicted upon the retina.
The new University of Upsala was
opened with great ceremony on May II. There
were present the King and Crown Prince of
sweden, a number of delegates from foreign
universities, the leading Swedish men of
science, and some l 500 students. The building
is very handsome and cost nearly e25O,OOO.
The Grand Duke Nicholas of Russia,
eldest son of the Grand Duke Michael Nichol-
alevltch, has, it is said, written book on the
entomology of the Caucasus. His highness is
an ardent student of natural history. and
studies every new work on the subject pub
lished in England. France and Germany.
A photographer at Pesth has succeeded
in taking photographs of projectiles, fired
from Werendler gun, whilst having yeloc-
Ity OF l,3OO feet per second. The proiectiles
appeared on the impressions enveloped in
layer OF air hyperbolic in form.
